Ms. Johnson from Saint Louis MO is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

I've Got Your Back!

Help me give my students these nice chair pockets to create their own space. These pockets will allow the students to become independent as well as helping them learn organization skills.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I teach Kindergarten located in an urban area in St. Louis city. Many of my student are from low income homes and qualify for free lunch. Therefore, it becomes my responsibility to provide supplies that are needed for our classroom. These resilient students are hard working and ready to learn.

I love teaching, my students and families are very important to me.

I will provide a safe and exciting learning environment where my students will love to come to school everyday.

My Project

Kindergartners need their own space to be able to focus on the task at hand. Having their supplies at hand will cut down on time getting supplies out of their cubbies. It is important that the students learn organizational skills and keep up with their materials.

These chair back buddies will allow the students to become self sufficient in taking care of their needs to complete their assignments.

Allowing student to be responsible for their materials gives them that push they need to make the transition from preschool to Kindergarten. The students will still get a chance to share supplies during centers and group projects. The materials in the chair pockets will be used for individual assignments.
